Wonder if this is an actual signature or just the print with signature reproduced. I've had both types with the same ad wording.

Pr-ordered and paid for from burning shed. £96 with p+p.
Now, what to do with my 2013 version?
Now, what to do with my 2013 version?
I've had to make room several times for each release of In The Court of The Crimson King. My non-Crimso fan friends mock me for my obsession with that record - I have most every version on every format released since 1969.I'll have to make room on the shelf for each re-re-issue!
Limited to 500 copies - I assumed it was a real signature

As usual, Importcds seems to have the prices to beat. Both The Lamb Lies Down On Broadway and Close To The Edge are listed for 27% off. Interesting that Lamb has 4CD + 1BD + a small digital download and no LP for $88 while CTTE has 5CD + 1BD + 1LP for $73.44. Of course both are overpriced but CTTE is clearly a better value just in terms of included content (unless you're really eager to own a coffee table book, that is). Hard to say how long it will take for the price to drop by 45% - 50% for either title.
Definitely plan on picking this one up, but at this point with the massive price drops after release I’m just gonna keep my eye on this thread.
And, as someone who doesn’t have this album on vinyl… I don’t mind the inclusion of vinyl!

Actual signature on all 500.

They should leave a cut out in the huge box sets so you could place your old version in there and put it to sleep. And a pull over tiny blanket glued on the cardboard for it too. This way all the versions could stay in one place.

I already have it on vinyl and got the 5.1 last year so I'm pretty done with purchasing this again and again and the 5.1 is pretty good so I'm decidedly bailing out on ordering this one.

I've got the solution, cut a square hole in the lp, fits nicely, looks great.

Which is putting it mildly. He butchered BSS:
KE 3rd impression with totally out of control bass guitar?
KE 3rd impression with 2 different organ solos running simultaneously, making it unlistenable? This used to be one of KE's finest studio organ solos!
Jerusalem with no tubular bells in the 2.0 remix?
To name but a few glaring mistakes...
Which version did Jakko mix? The box set?
I only have the 2000 DVDA.

Going back to the matter at hand……
As has been generally agreed by the majority of previous posts from QQ members, this ‘ultimate’ issue of CTTE is a definite ‘must have’ and will sit nicely alongside the myriad of issues of this ground breaking album I own. This includes my original purchase of the vinyl LP back in 1972 released some months after seeing Yes premiere CTTE in the UK at that summer’s Crystal Place Garden Party concert and which included The Mahavishnu Orchestra on the bill. A special day indeed!
So, yes (pun intended), I am an old git but still a music lover of all prog old and new. However, I do wonder if I am losing my marbles (no Marillion pun intended) as I think I have spotted something most peculiar with this exciting issue and when comparing the Rhino ‘pre-order blurb’ against the same for that on the Amazon and Burning Shed web sites. I will clarify.
I have no problem with the info shown on all three sites for CDs Disc 1 & 2 – Track listings match. Equally, I have no issue with the listings for the BR disc and the vinyl LP – other than Amazon don’t acknowledge it is ‘vinyl’ but, rather oddly, call it up as ‘Disc 7 & Disc 8’. I suppose they can be forgiven as they weren’t born when the black plastic disc was invented!
For me, where it all starts to fall apart are the listings for Disc 3 – ‘Rarities’ and the two ‘live concert’ CDs – Discs 4 & 5. Let’s take the latter first.
Amo, Rhino & BS concur in terms of track listing and order but there is a discrepancy in respect of the date of the concert. Amo & Rhino have it down as 16th December 1972 (I was there along with my family cohort ‘Omega 4’ who has mentioned this in an earlier post). However, BS have it listed as being recorded on 15th December 1972 – me and my cohort ‘was not there’!! Confusion all round or, maybe, some real disappointment to come!
As for Disc 3 - ‘Rarities’, this is where it all does really fall apart!! Amo & Rhino list 10 tracks whereas BS list only 7 tracks! Tracks 1-3 incl. concur then BS have ‘America (2025 SW Remix) as Track 4 whereas A & R have ‘Siberia (Studio Run-Through, etc.)’ – BTW that is Track 5 on the BS listing. Then, to compound matters, ‘And You and I – Alternate Version’ and ‘Close To The Edge (Rough Mix)’ are swapped around being Tracks 6 & 7 on the BS listings but are Tracks 6 & 5 on the other two….W*F? Anyway, after that mess up, BS give up the ghost and there is no mention of Tracks 8, 9 & 10 – the three SW edits).
So, after all that rubbish, does this mean that there are two different versions available between the USA and UK and completists need to order twice or, more than likely, has someone had a bit of a fragile day at Burning Shed?…couldn’t resist that last one! Ho de ho!

Wow really? I didn't mean it literally and meant it as a sarcasm. Would you care to post a picture of how you achieved this?
